What to do with Old Pictures: 5 Ideas

By

 


What Can I Do With Old Photos?

Old photos are a treasure trove of memories, capturing moments in time that can never be recreated. While it's important to preserve old photos, there are also many creative things you can do with them to bring them to life and create new memories. Here are some ideas to inspire your creativity and help you make the most of your old photos. Here are 5 that you can do yourself or others.


  1. Create a photo book 

Select your favorite old photos and compile them into a photo book. You can choose a theme, such as a family vacation or a year in review, and add captions or annotations to provide context for each photo. Most of the materials may be at your local Dollar Store. This could be at your next family gathering. 


  1. Digitize old photos 

Use a scanner or a smartphone app to digitize old photos and create digital copies. Once you digitize the photos, you can edit them, restore them, and share them with friends and family. Cloud storage sites like Dropbox.com and Box.com make it easy to save and share your files. Each family could have their own folder where they would upload pictures they want to share.


  1. Create a photo collage 

Print out a selection of your favorite old photos and arrange them into a collage. You can use a physical frame or create a digital version to share on social media. Photo collages make great gifts for special occasions such as anniversaries and birthdays.


  1. Digitize and colorize the photo

If you ever wonder what a photo would look like if it was taken today. Scan your black-and-white photo and send it to us for colorization. We may be able to remove the wrinkles from the photos as well.


  1. Make a photo memory game 

Print out pairs of your favorite old photos and use them to create a custom memory game. This can be a fun activity to play with friends and family. Makes a good brain exercise as well.


In our digital age, we take and store more photos than ever before. With so many photos at our fingertips, it's easy to overlook old physical prints that may have been stashed away in boxes or photo albums. Now you have project ideas and new memories to create.
